locals: I’m doing my free class in SEPTEMBER, last time in 2011

If you haven’t been before, I tell the tale of what happened to my family….because it’s the story, only the details are different, of every American who eats the S.A.D. and then turns away from it: tragedy to miracle! I talk about my research and some great facts and statistics to help you get motivated to spend a little time learning how to change your repertoire to natural, living foods rather than meat-n-processed garbage. We talk about steps that take little time and money but make a huge impact. And I do a little demo and serve samples. I want you and your friends to leave empowered and inspired to make change in your life through small and simple ways.

Check out the GreenSmoothieGirl facebook page, and share the events with your friends. If you refer 15 friends to ANY of my classes, you get a 12 Steps to Whole Foods course manual ($79.95) free.

Notice under Events on the site that we have upcoming Sept/Oct classes in Boise, Kennewick, Portland, Seattle, Spokane, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, and Austin. You might have friends in some of those places. That’s how the GSG message has spread—we pay for no advertising, so the movement has grown through word of mouth. (Oh, and Google rank helps!)

Hi Janine, I am not doing the smaller events (like in SF, for about 50) any more–hope we see you at the Orem one. We’re still looking for an event location, but it may end up being the Provo Marriott, which hopefully would be convenient enough for you.

Random question but I am SO curious… I have been breastfeeding my new little girl (I’m a new mom and LOVING IT) and want to gradually start introducing solids (she is 5 months now). I have started with a few different veggies and fruit (her diet is still mainly breastmilk of course).

So here is my question… are green smoothies OK for them at this age? They seem like a great thing to me but I just wanted to get your input on when they can start having some of this nutritious stuff (she has been getting it through me all through pregnancy and breastfeeding anyway

Jill, if you ARE going to introduce solids that early, I would start with single foods at a time, and make them raw. I like bananas, avocadoes, carrots (blend them with a little water RAW in your BlendTec), and raw goat milk if you can get it (even better if you make that goat milk into KEFIR–you will develop in your baby a very strong GI tract against the viruses and bacterial infections of the winter).

GOOD FOR YOU for starting this early, getting it right! If you do green smoothies, do really simple ones to let her adjust to new foods and she how she does. Like a banana/spinach/water smoothie only. And leave ANY sweeteners out of it. There’s no reason to acclimate her tastes to things being sweet. You have an opportunity here to let her learn to love foods in their most natural state!
